| - So, I went to Calli nails today for the first time. It was on my way home and figured I would try them out of convenience. The place was almost empty, and they got me back almost right away. I brought my own polish supplies (base coat, color and topcoat) but no tools. My manicure came out pretty nice. Now time for the cons
1) A little pricey. They charged $13, other salons in the area charge 10.
2) tools were pulled from the drawer on the right. I couldn't see inside of it, but I noticed a lack of crinkling and he seemed to pull it right out. I would suspect they were tools that are reused.
3) The station was pretty dirty when I arrived. They cleaned it up a little before starting.
4) when I went to go wash my hands, I noted a lot of crust and lime build up in the drains of the Pedi baths.
5) One of the employees just before we started asked my manicurist for a lighter, pulled out a pack of cigarettes from the adjacent station and took one and left. During the service, she dropped the lighter on the towel while he was working and walked away. Not super professional.
6) when we were done, he got a dryer and plugged it in, but forgot to turn it on before moving on to the next client. I had to figure out how to get it working.
Overall , it was a good manicure it looked nice. The lack of cleanliness and professionalism would keep me from coming back.
